CLK Schools Hope To Dispel Budget Rumors

In an email sent to parents, the Calumet Laurium and Keweenaw School District hopes to dispel what they perceive to be rumors about funding for the upcoming school year.

There have been talks of Michigan’s K-12 schools losing up to $1.1billion per year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, for the next several years, and that it will cost area school districts between $300 to $1,000 per student.

While those predictions sound bad, no one knows what will happen, because Lansing hasn’t come up with a budget yet.

Once they do, we’ll be better able to gauge what will happen.

Until then, the district will continue to put together the best curriculum, with what they have.
